This replication archive contains the data and code necessary to replicate all numerical results in Miller and Ziegler's "Preferential Abstention in Conjoint Experiments." The replication archive is broken into three parts:

STYLIZED EXAMPLE EXPERIMENT (stylized_example)

To calculate AMCEs in our stylized example, we utilize and adapt code from Abramson, Kocak, and Magazinnik (AJPS, 2022).  Specifically, we revise the construct.vote() and amce.compute() functions in the example_iia.R file in Abramson et al.'s Dataverse repository (https://dataverse.harvard.edu/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.7910/DVN/DR0YF2) to facilitate the generation of voter choices and calculation of AMCEs where abstentions are possible.  

The replication code for the results from our stylized example presented in the main paper and the Supplementary Materials can be found in stylized_example.R.

FUNCK AND MCCABE REPLICATION (FM_replication)

In the main paper and supplementary materials, we present results from our replication of Funck and McCabe (2022). To re-create our empirical analysis of F-M, you need the following files:
	- funckmccabe_codebook.txt: Instructions on variables in data file
	- funckmccabe_survey.pdf: The PDF version of the Qualtrics survey we used to collect data from respondents.
	- funckmccabe_data.csv: The survey responses we collected from MTurk can be found in funckmccabe_data.csv.
	- funckmccabe_code.R: The code required to replicate our results.

MUMMOLO REPLICATION (Mummolo_replication)

In the Supplementary Materials, we present results from our replication of Mummolo (2016). To re-create our empirical analysis, you need the following files:
	- mummolo_codebook.txt: Instructions on variables in data file
	- mummolo_survey.pdf: The PDF version of the Qualtrics survey we used to collect data from respondents.
	- mummolo_data.csv: The survey responses we collected from MTurk.
	- mummolo_code.R: The code required to replicate our results.
